The Second Martial Soul: Golden Dragon King
(Please support the new book)
The God Realm was shrouded in an ancient, desolate forest that looked like the ruins of a primordial civilization. Towering trees stretched toward the heavens, their branches entwined with divine laws, while fragments of broken divine structures lay scattered across the ground. Vitality flourished here, and the breath of life permeated every corner of the land.
Yet despite this abundant vitality, this place was listed as a forbidden zone even among the gods.
The reason was simple—deep within this forest slept a forbidden power, a terrifying existence that even the God Kings regarded with dread.
Under the joint suppression of the God Realm, this forbidden land had remained silent for tens of millions of years. Time flowed quietly, and nothing dared disturb its sealed tranquility.
But today, everything changed.
A horrifying fluctuation suddenly descended upon the God Realm, as if a foreign world had violently torn open the plane barrier. Two different dimensions collided, their powers alternately attracting and repelling each other in a chaotic struggle.
This was one of the most terrifying forces in existence—the turbulence of time and space.
Almost at the same instant this spatial-temporal turbulence appeared, the forbidden power sealed deep within the forest reacted. As if sensing an opportunity that might never come again, the sleeping existence awakened violently, roaring with rage and madness as it slammed against the divine seals.
In the past, even with "his" terrifying strength, it would have been absolutely impossible to break through the seals jointly laid down by several God Kings.
But now, under the interference of the turbulence of time and space, the divine seals weakened.
Cracks appeared.
And finally—
They shattered.
"ROAR—!"
A dragon's roar filled with ancient malice and unrestrained excitement shook the heavens and earth. A colossal golden dragon, nearly a thousand meters long and covered in dazzling golden scales, burst forth from the forbidden land and soared into the sky.
This was the Golden Dragon King—
The incarnation of the Dragon God's physical power.
A supreme existence that once stood at the pinnacle of the divine hierarchy.
Its reappearance meant catastrophe for the entire God Realm.
However, before the Golden Dragon King could even stabilize its form, the raging turbulence of time and space locked onto it. The immense force wrapped around its massive body, compressing it into a beam of golden light and forcibly dragging it into an unknown plane.
At the same time—
In another region of the God Realm.
A man dressed in an exquisitely embroidered blue robe suddenly froze in mid-motion. His waist stopped moving abruptly, completely ignoring the dissatisfied and annoyed expression of the beautiful woman beneath him.
His eyes sharpened, divine light flashing within them as he roared furiously:
"Who is it?! Who dares disrupt my plan?!"
...
"Brother Tianmeng! Brother Tianmeng! I'm coming!"
On the road leading toward the Star Dou Forest, a thin but handsome少年 was running lightly, excitement written all over his face, completely unable to suppress it.
His name was Huo Yuhao.
But at the same time, he was not the original Huo Yuhao.
Because the soul inhabiting this body came from Blue Star, and its true name was Yuhao. Although only one character differed, the personality within was entirely different. More importantly, this Yuhao clearly understood everything that would happen in the world of Douluo Dalu.
From the moment he realized he had transmigrated into Douluo Dalu II, Yuhao felt nervous—but that feeling did not last long.
Soon after, excitement took over.
He knew exactly what kind of heaven-defying fate this body originally possessed.
A million-year soul ring.
A three-life martial soul.
Ultimate Ice.
The Child of Destiny.
He also knew that in the later stages, he would be secretly manipulated and constrained by that so-called "benevolent" Tang God King.
But that was the original Huo Yuhao.
Now, the one controlling this body was him.
Once he fully adapted, Yuhao was determined to completely rewrite his destined future.
"Hah! Bingqingyujie Tang Shenwang? Bah!"
Yuhao sneered inwardly.
However, before he obtained the strength to overturn everything, he still needed to endure—and accept—the first so-called "cheat" bestowed by fate.
As he continued forward, Yuhao soon arrived at a riverbank.
According to the original plot, he would meet Tang Ya, the current sect master of the Tang Sect, as well as her senior brother Beibei here. Under their invitation, he would join the Tang Sect and eventually enter Shrek Academy.
But Yuhao had no intention of following the original storyline.
He came here to change his destiny.
Moreover, he held no goodwill toward Shrek Academy—the so-called number one academy on the continent that replaced the Spirit Hall. It claimed to uphold justice, yet only accepted geniuses and offered no real path for survival to poor children.
"Tch. My Spirit Eye martial soul—whether placed in the Noumenon Sect or the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy—would be fought over. Yet Shrek Academy actually thought I had no potential?"
Yuhao cursed inwardly.
He clearly remembered how Xuanzi, a Rank 98 Super Douluo, had once looked down on the Spirit Eye martial soul, completely unwilling to cultivate him as a core disciple.
Only after discovering his second martial soul—the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion possessing Ultimate Ice—did they shamelessly try to bring him back.
Disgusting.
Yuhao did not linger by the river and continued heading toward the Star Dou Forest.
Before long, the wooden sign marking the entrance to the Star Dou Forest came into view. Seeing it made Yuhao's heart race with excitement. Without hesitation, he increased his pace.
After more than half a day of travel, Yuhao finally stepped into the Star Dou Forest.
The air here was entirely different—thicker, heavier, filled with raw life energy.
This both excited him and made him feel uneasy.
After all, the Star Dou Forest was home to countless soul beasts. With his current strength, even a hundred-year soul beast could be fatal if he was careless.
After a moment of consideration, Yuhao circulated his soul power into his eyes and activated his Spirit Eye martial soul. At the same time, he gripped the White Tiger Dagger in his hand and muttered softly:
"Brother Tianmeng… come out quickly…"
Just then—
A black shadow flashed past his vision and lunged at him with terrifying speed.
"Wind Baboon!"
Yuhao instantly recognized the soul beast using the original owner's memories.
His expression turned strange.
He had come earlier than in the original plot, yet still encountered this soul beast.
At the same time, excitement surged within him—because this meant Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was nearby.
The Wind Baboon slashed at him with its sharp claws, cold light flickering.
To be honest, Yuhao was still somewhat nervous.
But his reaction speed was astonishing.
He twisted his body to the side, narrowly dodging the attack, and thrust the White Tiger Dagger forward, piercing the Wind Baboon's shoulder.
He had aimed for the neck, but this was his first real fight, and his movements were still unfamiliar.
Chi—!
The dagger pierced through cleanly. The Wind Baboon roared in pain and tried to counterattack, but Yuhao's ferocity had already been ignited. He exerted force with his legs and slammed the soul beast to the ground.
The former Huo Yuhao could never have done this.
Because Yuhao himself possessed a secret.
The Wind Baboon stared at him in disbelief. It never imagined that this seemingly frail human could erupt with such terrifying strength.
Yuhao did not waste words.
He pulled out the dagger and slit its throat cleanly.
Hoo—
As the soul ring slowly rose from the Wind Baboon's corpse, Yuhao finally let out a long breath.
But before he could rest—
A voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Finally… I've met a human with spiritual attributes! If I knew how to cry, I'd be crying right now!"
The tone.
The words.
Yuhao's eyes widened slightly.
Crack—!
The ground split apart. A plump, snow-white silkworm more than seven meters long emerged, its body adorned with ten radiant golden patterns.
Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.
"Huh? The little guy isn't scared? Could it be you're attracted by my magnificent body?"
Tianmeng was clearly stunned by Yuhao's calm expression—and the faint smile on his face.
"You—what kind of soul beast are you?!"
Yuhao was ecstatic inside, but still pretended to be frightened.
Seeing this, Tianmeng relaxed.
"Don't worry. I won't hurt you. I'll become your soul ring—the first intelligent soul ring in the history of Douluo Continent."
"Enough talk. Big brother is starting now. Don't worry—I'll be gentle."
The familiar shameless words echoed.
An icy aura spread out as Tianmeng's plump head pressed against Yuhao's forehead.
At that moment, Yuhao felt no fear—only boundless joy.
Because of this intense emotion, he didn't even lose consciousness.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm transformed into a white halo, merging into Yuhao's body together with its golden patterns.
"So weak… far too weak… huh?! What is this?!"
Yuhao's meridians were blocked due to his mutated martial soul, making Tianmeng sigh in frustration. But suddenly, it sensed an unimaginably terrifying force deep within Yuhao's body.
A violent, tyrannical power that even its million-year cultivation could not compare to.
In a trance, Tianmeng saw it—
A colossal golden dragon, covered in radiant scales, towering higher than mountains and broader than seas. With every movement, it seemed capable of overturning heaven and earth.
"What… what is this?! A soul beast? Or a god?!"
Even Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, the first million-year soul beast in history, was completely shocked.
A calm voice echoed within the sea of consciousness.
"You can think of it as my second martial soul."
